Putin: Do you realize what you have done?

Russian President Vladimir Putin told the U.N. on Monday that those who supported democratic revolutions in the Middle East are to blame for the rise of a globally ambitious Islamic State.
"Instead of the triumph of democracy and progress, we got violence, poverty and social disaster — and nobody cares a bit about human rights, including the right to life," Putin said through a translator. "I cannot help asking those who have forced that situation: Do you realize what you have done?"
The Russian president added that the power vacuum following these revolutions led to the rise of terrorist groups in the region — including the Islamic State group.
He told the United Nations General Assembly it would be an "enormous mistake" not to cooperate with the Syrian government to combat the extremist group.
"No one but President (Bashar) Assad's armed forces and Kurdish militia are truly fighting the Islamic State and other terrorist organizations in Syria," he said.
In an earlier speech at the U.N., President Barack Obama said it would be a mistake to think that Syria could be stable under Assad.
Acknowledging some of the criticism lobbed at Russia's proposal, Putin said his country is only proposing to help save the world from terrorism.
"I must note that such an honest and frank approach from Russia has been recently used as a pretext to accuse it of its growing ambitions — as if those who say it has no ambitions at all. However, it's not about Russia's ambitions, dear colleagues, but about the recognition of the fact that we can no longer tolerate the current state of affairs in the world," he said.

Hah ha ha
Thanks for the laughs
Hmmm, is Barry stomping his feet about now?
New World Order, meet your New World Leader.
He's creating an ideological alternative and lethal threat to menace the nation he hates the most.
Yes, and that nation Obama hates the most is the United States of America.
The communist leader of the free world.
‘In an earlier speech at the U.N., President Barack Obama said it would be a mistake to think that Syria could be stable under Assad’
Is there anyone in the WORLD, other than the Leftist sycophants in our Big Media, listening to Barack?? Is there anyone in the WORLD, who still has respect for our ‘leader’ or our once great country??
exactly.
Granted you can’t trust Putin any further than you can throw him, but on a certain level what he said is 100% true.
Vladimir Putin
Stating the truths that American politicians are too cowardly to admit.
“....the recognition of the fact that we can no longer tolerate the current state of affairs in the world,”
not a laughing matter
the question is how best to address the current state of affairs. Do we use Obama’s twinkle toes foreign policy, or .....?
“not a laughing matter”
All of this coming from Putin, is
The destabilization of the middle east was always the plan it seems. It is the best, most effective way to force worldwide acceptance of 3rd world refugees in the 10s of millions.
Pretty much
And unlike Obama he loves his country
I knida think they do Vlad. And I kinda think you know it. Now can you just start living up to your namesake and get the impalements underway?
It’s like watching one side of the table of Jr. League hippie socialists that played “communist revolutionaries” on the weekends back in the 70s and 80s, and the other side ACTUAL former* communists that know all of the tricks of the trade, bringing their Soviet poker faces to the table.
Hell even their body language is telling. Russia’s side are all men with a posture that says “we’ve got this”. Our “side” looks like some diversity farce, and no one looks like they can sit up straight.
Yes, just like Iraq and the rest of the Middle East was “unstable” when Saddam was in power...
This administration has developed the first all optics, no substance foreign policy in American history.All speechifying and reset buttons that no foreign leader takes seriously especially Mr Putin.
